Then on Monday, the time travellers are taken prisoner by the Mechanoids and then escape, but not without consequence to the daleks that were chasing them. This is the last story with Ian and Barabara and a touching video montage is featured at the end of this episode. The week closes out when the Doctor gains a new companion in the form of Steven Taylor. The TARDIS lands in England in the year 1066, but the Doctor finds items from the 20th and is surprised to learn that the local Monk is one of his own people.
